Internet of Things & Large scale Data Analysis by Amazon

The rise of open-source electronics platforms enabled makers and developers to build devices capable of interacting with our environment. The processing power of those devices is limited, but they are often equiped with internet access which allows them to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) to provide more features or data processing capabilities to their users. Companies such as Dropcam for video capture, or Illumina for DNA sequencing, already produced devices that directly use AWS to offer much richer services by processing every day terabytes of data.
